Soldiers searched for bodies in treetops, families wept over the dead laid on beaches and rescuers scoured coral isles for missing tourists as Asia counted the cost Monday of a tsunami that killed more than 15,500.
Idyllic palm-fringed beaches across southern Asia were transformed into scenes of death and devastation by the waves unleashed from the world’s biggest earthquake in 40 years that struck off the Indonesian island of Sumatra early Sunday.
International aid agencies rushed stuff, equipment and money to the region, warning that bodies rotting in the water were already beginning to threaten the water supply for survivors.
“Death came from the sea,” Satya Kumari, a construction worker living on the outskirts of the former French enclave of Pondicherry, India, told Reuters. “The waves just kept chasing us. It swept away all our huts. What did we do to deserve this?”
The walls of water up to 10 meters (30ft) tall flattened houses, hurled fishing boats onto coastal roads, sent cars spinning through swirling waters into hotel lobbies and sucked sunbathers, babies and fishermen off beaches and out to sea. Worst affected were Sri Lanka where 4,890 were killed, India where officials reported as many as 5,600 could be dead, northern Indonesia with 4,500 drowned and the southern tourist isles of Thailand where as many as 430 were feared to have lost their lives. Many of the dead were foreign tourists.
“This is a massive humanitarian disaster and the communications are so bad we still don’t know the full scale of it. Unless we get aid quickly to the people many more could die,” said Phil Esmond, head of Oxfam in Sri Lanka.
The Geneva-based International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies said it was seeking 7.5 million Swiss francs ($6.5 million) for emergency aid funding.
“We are not well equipped to deal with a disaster of this magnitude because we have never known a disaster like this,” Sri Lanka President Chandrika Kumaratunga, who declared a national disaster and appealed for donor aid, said from holiday in the UK.
It was Sri Lanka’s worst natural disaster in recorded history. Officials expected the death toll to rise as troops recovered bodies dragged out to sea or smashed on golden beaches.
56. Why were so many people killed?
A. They were killed by the houses destroyed in the earthquake.
B. Sea waves swallowed them.
C. The spreading diseases caused the great loss of lives.
D. The earthquake as well as the tsunami caused the deaths.
57. Which country suffered the least up to 2004-12-27 16:08 ?
A. Indonesia B. Sri Lanka
C. Thailand D. India
58. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the news?
A. The number of the deaths will be much larger.
B. The worst of the disaster is not from the earthquake, but from the tsunami.
C. These unfortunate countries have got fully prepared for the earthquake.
D. The president of Sri Lanka was abroad on vacation when the earthquake happened.
59. What could be the best title of this passage?
A. Asia tsunami kills 15,500, rush to find bodies.
B. Deaths come from the sea.
C. 15,500 lost their lives in an earthquake.
D. Be careful! Earthquake comes!

Have you ever visited your neighbors? If so, that is just a piece of cake, isn’t it? What about paying a visit to the Mars, one of the earth’s nearest neighbors, the fourth planet in the solar system?
Well, Spirit and Opportunity, NASA’ twin rovers(探测机器人) have been doing that since they landed on Mars in January, 2004. They have been sending back data(数据)and pictures for the last 10 months. Enough proof was collected by Opportunity to prove that water once existed on the planet Mars, as was included in the articles of the journal Science.
The proof is there in several ways. There are sulfates(硫酸盐)existing on Mars that were left behind when the water evaporated, plus other salts that show the certain presence of water long ago. Also, large numbers of small, round mineral deposits separated among the rocks were found. And on the earth we know these formations only appear if water is present. That’s to say, liquid water once flowed through some areas of the Mars.
Could the presence of water mean that life— in some form— existed on Mars? Fortunately, the minerals that were found are good at preserving proof of ancient life for very long periods of time. Meanwhile, scientists have discovered proof of minerals activity in a rock glacier. “The environment conditions could have been suitable for life,” said Mark Lemon, a leading scientist from Texas A&M College of Geosciences.
One day, when you landed on the Mars and took an express train through the Tunnel of Time, you might be able to feel how hospitable(好客的)and friendly the “Marsians” were.
60. What’s the real purpose in writing the passage?
A. To advise us to pay a visit to the Mars.
B. To tell us a make-up science story.
C. To introduce to us a magazine named Science.
D. To show us the latest research results on the Mars.
61. Which of the following CANNOT be learned from the text?
A. The common transport(交通工具)on the Mars is an express train.
B. According to the knowledge of the water flow on the earth, scientists can conclude if there used to be water on the Mars.
C. So far the twin rovers have been working on the Mars around a year.
D. The environment conditions on the Mars probably used to be suitable for life.
62. In paragraphs 3-4, the following could serve as the proof of water and life except_____.
A. sulfates B. ice
C. minerals D. microbial activity
63. From the opening paragraph and the ending paragraph, we can see the author might be ______.
A. humorous B. dreamy
C. adventurous D. serious
C
HOSPITALS across China are receiving large numbers of patients suffering from influenza(流行感冒),or “flu”, as the country is experiencing the coldest winter in 20 years. Not only is the illness unpleasant, but it can also be dangerous.
Flu has beaten AIDS as the No.1 killer in the US, according to a new report published on January 8 by the American Center for Disease Control and Prevention. It now contributes to an average of 36,000 deaths in the US every year. This deaths number is a big increase from 1990 when 23,000 people died, and 1976 when there were just 16,000 related deaths.
According to the report, more people are dying from flu because of a growth in the elderly population, and because more different and deadly types of flu were around in the 1990s than in the 1970s and 1980s.
Another surprising discovery was that a little-known virus called RSV is rarely fatal(致命的) in young people, but affects more and more adults each year. RSV causes croup (哮吼)—originally thought to be mostly a problem for young children. About 230 children under four years die from RSV every year. But, it also kills nearly 11,000 adults, most of them 65 years and older.
The RSV season starts in November and gets to the top in January and February. Most children have at least one RSV-infection(感染)by age three.
“Influenza and RSV are both major causes of death in the US,” said Keiji Fukuda, a flu expert.
The study shows the importance of flu shots, said US Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy G. Thompson. “Older Americans need to know that the shots cannot give you the flu. And they need to get those shots every year. In fact, it’s not too late to get a flu shot this year.” he said.
But, there’s no vaccine(疫苗) RSV. Researchers have spent decades trying to develop one, and several new candidates are currently being tested. Part of the problem is that having RSV once, or antibodies(抗体) to it, doesn’t prevent future cases of infection-similar to how people continually catch new colds. The height of the flu season in the US is usually from late December through to late January, though last year it peaked later, in mid-to-late February.
64. In what season does the “flu” virus appear?
A. SummerB. Autumn
C. WinterD. Spring
65. The number of flu-related deaths is increasing because_____.
A. fewer people are getting flu shots
B. the number of people in the world has increased
C. the number of children in the world has increased
D. the number of elderly people in the world has increased
66. What is implied as the main reason why many people don’t get flu shots?
A. People think that the flu shot is not effective.
B. People don’t believe in the flu shot.
C. People think that they will get the flu from the flu shot.
D. People think only children die from the flu.
67. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the reading?
A. The RSV virus is more dangerous to children than to adults.
B. More people die from the flu than from AIDS.
C. There is no vaccine for the RSV virus.
D. PeoplecanbeinfectedwiththeRSVvirus manytimes.
D
Experts say that it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock” is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists. In the first stage, the new comers like their new environment. Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to their surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more.
There are some obvious factors in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems— the telephone, post office, or transportation— may be difficult to work out. The simplest things seem to be big problems. The language may be difficult.
Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their home countries and were successful in their community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity(身份).They have to build a new self-image.
Culture shock gives rises to a feeling of disorientation(迷惘).This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create and escape inside their room for a sense of security(a sense of safety). This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.
68. The main purpose of writing the text is ______.
A. to take pity on the homesick
B. to share his feelings about staying abroad
C. to introduce the knowledge of culture shock
D. to encourage and cheer up the culture shock sufferers
69. What does the underlined words adjust to(paragraph 1)probably mean?
A. get used to B. get tired of
C. protect D. appreciate
70. If one feels homesick due to culture shock, he should ________.
A. stay inside all the time for safety
B. phone his parents or friend in his home country for comfort
C. work hard to build a new self-image
D. get to know the new surroundings and gain experience
71. Which of the following facts about culture shock is true?
A. The successful ones in their community have less difficulty in a foreign environment.
B. Culture shock doesn’t include such factors as customs, one’s native language and so on.
C. Culture shock gives rises to the feeling of being lost.
D. The specialists going abroad won’t experience the stages of culture shock.

【答案与解析】
单项填空
21.D考查交际用语。向对方表示祝贺常用复数形式congratulations。
22.A 考查分词作状语。表示某人“深信”某事,应使用be convinced of,作状语时应使用过去分词形式。
23.C 考查介词搭配。be charged with“被控告……”;accuse sb. of…“指责/控告某人犯有……”。
24.A 考查动词词义辨析。clarify“澄清(真相),阐明”;check“检查,核对”;claim“声称”;clap“鼓掌,拍手”。
25.A 考查动词短语辨义。hold back“忍住”;get over“克服,越过”;hold out“伸出”;get through“打通电话,及格”。
26.C 考查非谓语动词。表示动作将要被完成,应使用不定式的被动形式。过去分词表示动作完成或结束;现在分词的被动式表示动作正在被做。
27.A 考查名词词组作连词。表示瞬时性的名词词组如the moment, the instant, the minute, the second等,意为“一……就……”,可以用作连词,引导时间状语从句。
28.B 考查名词性从句连接词的选用。选择名词性从句的引导词可采用从句中“缺什么成分补什么成分”的原则。介词of后的宾语从句中缺少主语,用what引导宾语从句,并在句中作主语,意思是“……的地方”。
29.A 考查时态。此题易受for ten years的影响而选现在完成时,根据语境,说话者现在在中国,谈到自己曾在日本呆过十年,而且stay是延续性动词,应使用一般过去时。
30.B 考查倒装。当“so(such)…that…”结构中的so或such位于句首时,构成部分倒装句。be absorbed in是固定短语,故选B答案。
31.A 考查情态动词表示推测的用法。根据语境,“我对这条路不是很确定,但有可能是”可确定使用might。
32.A 考查代词用法。从第二句话可知,“这种新方法并不是被每一个人所接受”,因为“已经在我们之间产生了争论”。
33.D 考查虚拟语气。在wish后的虚拟语气中用过去完成式,表示对过去的虚拟。
34.C 考查强调结构。对not…until句式的强调有固定的句型,即It is/was not until…that…。
35.B 考查定语从句关系词的选择。关系词在定语从句中作名词effects的定语,所以选用whose。

66.C推理判断题。从第七段“…Older Americans need to know that the shots cannot give you the flu”可以推论出年纪比较大的人担心注射疫苗会感染上病毒。
67.A细节辨别题。从第七段死于RSV不同年龄数字看:四岁以下孩子每年大约有230人,而成年人却有11,000之多,大部分又是65岁以上的老年人。所以,RSV病毒对老年人群危害大。

74.B词义猜测题。从原文可知,到第三天去Montmatre,这很可能是巴黎最风景如画的地方。
75.C推理判断题。从文章第三段可知,第二天看完巴黎市区的风景后,离开巴黎,驱车一小段路程,到达the Palace of Versailles,然后回到巴黎休息,说明the Palace of Versailles不在巴黎市区。
短文改错
76. me后加上to。固定搭配错误。want sb. to do sth.是固定搭配。做宾补的不定式不能省to。
77. exciting改为excited。形容词误用。exciting意思是“令人激动的”,常用来修饰物;excited意思是“感到激动的”,常用来修饰人。本句要表示“我很激动地接受了邀请”应使用excited修饰人。
78. felt改为feel。时态误用。“我现在感到有点焦虑”应使用一般现在时。
79. 去掉between。冗余。A is different from B是固定结构,再加上between纯属多余。
80. 正确。
81. and改为or。连词误用。此处表示选择,应用or。“我是应该准时到达还是应该稍微晚一点?”
82. your改为their。 代词错用。“我应该怎样对他们的好意表示感谢?”
83. questions改为questions。单复数错误。questions前有all these修饰,应使用复数形式。
84. difficulty改为difficult。词性错用。make后的宾补应使用形容词形式。“所有这些问题充满了我的脑子,使得我在晚上很难睡好。”
85. hear改为hearing。非谓语动词错误。look forward to中的to是介词,其后跟名词或动名词。

Soldiers searched for bodies in treetops, families wept over the dead laid on beaches and rescuers scoured coral isles for missing tourists as Asia counted the cost Monday of a tsunami that killed more than 15,500.
Idyllic palm-fringed beaches across southern Asia were transformed into scenes of death and devastation by the waves unleashed from the world’s biggest earthquake in 40 years that struck off the Indonesian island of Sumatra early Sunday.
International aid agencies rushed stuff, equipment and money to the region, warning that bodies rotting in the water were already beginning to threaten the water supply for survivors.
“Death came from the sea,” Satya Kumari, a construction worker living on the outskirts of the former French enclave of Pondicherry, India, told Reuters. “The waves just kept chasing us. It swept away all our huts. What did we do to deserve this?”
The walls of water up to 10 meters (30ft) tall flattened houses, hurled fishing boats onto coastal roads, sent cars spinning through swirling waters into hotel lobbies and sucked sunbathers, babies and fishermen off beaches and out to sea. Worst affected were Sri Lanka where 4,890 were killed, India where officials reported as many as 5,600 could be dead, northern Indonesia with 4,500 drowned and the southern tourist isles of Thailand where as many as 430 were feared to have lost their lives. Many of the dead were foreign tourists.
“This is a massive humanitarian disaster and the communications are so bad we still don’t know the full scale of it. Unless we get aid quickly to the people many more could die,” said Phil Esmond, head of Oxfam in Sri Lanka.
The Geneva-based International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies said it was seeking 7.5 million Swiss francs ($6.5 million) for emergency aid funding.
“We are not well equipped to deal with a disaster of this magnitude because we have never known a disaster like this,” Sri Lanka President Chandrika Kumaratunga, who declared a national disaster and appealed for donor aid, said from holiday in the UK.
It was Sri Lanka’s worst natural disaster in recorded history. Officials expected the death toll to rise as troops recovered bodies dragged out to sea or smashed on golden beaches.
56. Why were so many people killed?
A. They were killed by the houses destroyed in the earthquake.
B. Sea waves swallowed them.
C. The spreading diseases caused the great loss of lives.
D. The earthquake as well as the tsunami caused the deaths.
57. Which country suffered the least up to 2004-12-27 16:08 ?
A. Indonesia B. Sri Lanka
C. Thailand D. India
58. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the news?
A. The number of the deaths will be much larger.
B. The worst of the disaster is not from the earthquake, but from the tsunami.
C. These unfortunate countries have got fully prepared for the earthquake.
D. The president of Sri Lanka was abroad on vacation when the earthquake happened.
59. What could be the best title of this passage?
A. Asia tsunami kills 15,500, rush to find bodies.
B. Deaths come from the sea.
C. 15,500 lost their lives in an earthquake.
D. Be careful! Earthquake comes!
B
Have you ever visited your neighbors? If so, that is just a piece of cake, isn’t it? What about paying a visit to the Mars, one of the earth’s nearest neighbors, the fourth planet in the solar system?
Well, Spirit and Opportunity, NASA’ twin rovers(探测机器人) have been doing that since they landed on Mars in January, 2004. They have been sending back data(数据)and pictures for the last 10 months. Enough proof was collected by Opportunity to prove that water once existed on the planet Mars, as was included in the articles of the journal Science.
The proof is there in several ways. There are sulfates(硫酸盐)existing on Mars that were left behind when the water evaporated, plus other salts that show the certain presence of water long ago. Also, large numbers of small, round mineral deposits separated among the rocks were found. And on the earth we know these formations only appear if water is present. That’s to say, liquid water once flowed through some areas of the Mars.
Could the presence of water mean that life— in some form— existed on Mars? Fortunately, the minerals that were found are good at preserving proof of ancient life for very long periods of time. Meanwhile, scientists have discovered proof of minerals activity in a rock glacier. “The environment conditions could have been suitable for life,” said Mark Lemon, a leading scientist from Texas A&M College of Geosciences.
One day, when you landed on the Mars and took an express train through the Tunnel of Time, you might be able to feel how hospitable(好客的)and friendly the “Marsians” were.
60. What’s the real purpose in writing the passage?
A. To advise us to pay a visit to the Mars.
B. To tell us a make-up science story.
C. To introduce to us a magazine named Science.
D. To show us the latest research results on the Mars.
61. Which of the following CANNOT be learned from the text?
A. The common transport(交通工具)on the Mars is an express train.
B. According to the knowledge of the water flow on the earth, scientists can conclude if there used to be water on the Mars.
C. So far the twin rovers have been working on the Mars around a year.
D. The environment conditions on the Mars probably used to be suitable for life.
62. In paragraphs 3-4, the following could serve as the proof of water and life except_____.
A. sulfates B. ice
C. minerals D. microbial activity
63. From the opening paragraph and the ending paragraph, we can see the author might be ______.
A. humorous B. dreamy
C. adventurous D. serious
C
HOSPITALS across China are receiving large numbers of patients suffering from influenza(流行感冒),or “flu”, as the country is experiencing the coldest winter in 20 years. Not only is the illness unpleasant, but it can also be dangerous.
Flu has beaten AIDS as the No.1 killer in the US, according to a new report published on January 8 by the American Center for Disease Control and Prevention. It now contributes to an average of 36,000 deaths in the US every year. This deaths number is a big increase from 1990 when 23,000 people died, and 1976 when there were just 16,000 related deaths.
According to the report, more people are dying from flu because of a growth in the elderly population, and because more different and deadly types of flu were around in the 1990s than in the 1970s and 1980s.
Another surprising discovery was that a little-known virus called RSV is rarely fatal(致命的) in young people, but affects more and more adults each year. RSV causes croup (哮吼)—originally thought to be mostly a problem for young children. About 230 children under four years die from RSV every year. But, it also kills nearly 11,000 adults, most of them 65 years and older.
The RSV season starts in November and gets to the top in January and February. Most children have at least one RSV-infection(感染)by age three.
“Influenza and RSV are both major causes of death in the US,” said Keiji Fukuda, a flu expert.
The study shows the importance of flu shots, said US Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy G. Thompson. “Older Americans need to know that the shots cannot give you the flu. And they need to get those shots every year. In fact, it’s not too late to get a flu shot this year.” he said.
But, there’s no vaccine(疫苗) RSV. Researchers have spent decades trying to develop one, and several new candidates are currently being tested. Part of the problem is that having RSV once, or antibodies(抗体) to it, doesn’t prevent future cases of infection-similar to how people continually catch new colds. The height of the flu season in the US is usually from late December through to late January, though last year it peaked later, in mid-to-late February.
64. In what season does the “flu” virus appear?
A. SummerB. Autumn
C. WinterD. Spring
65. The number of flu-related deaths is increasing because_____.
A. fewer people are getting flu shots
B. the number of people in the world has increased
C. the number of children in the world has increased
D. the number of elderly people in the world has increased
66. What is implied as the main reason why many people don’t get flu shots?
A. People think that the flu shot is not effective.
B. People don’t believe in the flu shot.
C. People think that they will get the flu from the flu shot.
D. People think only children die from the flu.
67. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the reading?
A. The RSV virus is more dangerous to children than to adults.
B. More people die from the flu than from AIDS.
C. There is no vaccine for the RSV virus.
D. PeoplecanbeinfectedwiththeRSVvirus manytimes.
D
Experts say that it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock” is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists. In the first stage, the new comers like their new environment. Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to their surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more.
There are some obvious factors in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems— the telephone, post office, or transportation— may be difficult to work out. The simplest things seem to be big problems. The language may be difficult.
Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their home countries and were successful in their community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity(身份).They have to build a new self-image.
Culture shock gives rises to a feeling of disorientation(迷惘).This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create and escape inside their room for a sense of security(a sense of safety). This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.
68. The main purpose of writing the text is ______.
A. to take pity on the homesick
B. to share his feelings about staying abroad
C. to introduce the knowledge of culture shock
D. to encourage and cheer up the culture shock sufferers
69. What does the underlined words adjust to(paragraph 1)probably mean?
A. get used to B. get tired of
C. protect D. appreciate
70. If one feels homesick due to culture shock, he should ________.
A. stay inside all the time for safety
B. phone his parents or friend in his home country for comfort
C. work hard to build a new self-image
D. get to know the new surroundings and gain experience
71. Which of the following facts about culture shock is true?
A. The successful ones in their community have less difficulty in a foreign environment.
B. Culture shock doesn’t include such factors as customs, one’s native language and so on.
C. Culture shock gives rises to the feeling of being lost.
D. The specialists going abroad won’t experience the stages of culture shock.

【答案与解析】
单项填空
21.D考查交际用语。向对方表示祝贺常用复数形式congratulations。
22.A 考查分词作状语。表示某人“深信”某事,应使用be convinced of,作状语时应使用过去分词形式。
23.C 考查介词搭配。be charged with“被控告……”;accuse sb. of…“指责/控告某人犯有……”。
24.A 考查动词词义辨析。clarify“澄清(真相),阐明”;check“检查,核对”;claim“声称”;clap“鼓掌,拍手”。
25.A 考查动词短语辨义。hold back“忍住”;get over“克服,越过”;hold out“伸出”;get through“打通电话,及格”。
26.C 考查非谓语动词。表示动作将要被完成,应使用不定式的被动形式。过去分词表示动作完成或结束;现在分词的被动式表示动作正在被做。
27.A 考查名词词组作连词。表示瞬时性的名词词组如the moment, the instant, the minute, the second等,意为“一……就……”,可以用作连词,引导时间状语从句。
28.B 考查名词性从句连接词的选用。选择名词性从句的引导词可采用从句中“缺什么成分补什么成分”的原则。介词of后的宾语从句中缺少主语,用what引导宾语从句,并在句中作主语,意思是“……的地方”。
29.A 考查时态。此题易受for ten years的影响而选现在完成时,根据语境,说话者现在在中国,谈到自己曾在日本呆过十年,而且stay是延续性动词,应使用一般过去时。
30.B 考查倒装。当“so(such)…that…”结构中的so或such位于句首时,构成部分倒装句。be absorbed in是固定短语,故选B答案。
31.A 考查情态动词表示推测的用法。根据语境,“我对这条路不是很确定,但有可能是”可确定使用might。
32.A 考查代词用法。从第二句话可知,“这种新方法并不是被每一个人所接受”,因为“已经在我们之间产生了争论”。
33.D 考查虚拟语气。在wish后的虚拟语气中用过去完成式,表示对过去的虚拟。
34.C 考查强调结构。对not…until句式的强调有固定的句型,即It is/was not until…that…。
35.B 考查定语从句关系词的选择。关系词在定语从句中作名词effects的定语,所以选用whose。
完形填空
本文描述了一位跳伞运动员首次跳伞时复杂的心理活动。

37.D 红灯“开始”闪烁,意味着跳伞即将开始。come on开始;come round恢复知觉,改变注意;come through经历,脱险。
38.C “他”艰难地来到飞机跳伞的“位置”,这时候浮想联翩。
39.C 根据倒数第二段Nothing goes wrong.得知答案。
40.B “他”祈祷飞机出故障,“阻止”红灯变为绿灯。prevent…(from)doing是常用句型,意为“阻止……发生”。
41.A“他”甚至“想知道”自己是如何鬼使神差地“从事”这项运动。
42.A take up开始从事(工作);take on聘用,开始显现;take in收留,改短(衣服),领悟;take for当作,误认为。
43.A 显然后悔已太晚了。
44.B 下面这些不仅仅是教练员的“话语”,更是对学员们的“忠告”。
45.D “培训”一词与前边的instructor衔接更佳。飞机跳伞技巧性很强,需要专业训练。
46.C 这是一个让步状语从句,“无论你们跳伞多少次,你们将可能永远克服不了恐惧”。
47.C 参见46的解析。
48.B 这里与全文首句相呼应,应用frightened一词。
49.A in the air在空中。
50.A 跳伞前一刹那这种恐惧心理最为厉害。chance这里表示“可能性"。
51.D 这里行文逻辑上表示转折关系。
52.D 当伞打开后,你会体会到一生中最快乐的经历。
53.A 可是教练员的“教诲”无济于事。make no difference无关紧要,没有差别。
54.B 前后呼应,stop一词与上文prevent对应。
55.C look into one’s eyes注视某人。

A
本文介绍了印度洋海啸的一些情况。
56.D 推理判断题。根据文章意思可知,由于印度洋发生了强烈地震引发了海啸,从而造成了重大人员伤亡。
57.C 细节题。从文章第5段Worst affected were Sri Lanka where 4,890 were killed, India where officials reported as many as 5,600 could be dead, northern Indonesia with 4,500 drowned and the southern tourist isles of Thailand where as many as 430 were feared to have lost their lives可知泰国遭受的死亡人数目前最少,只有430人可能遇难。
58.C 细节辨别题。从文章倒数第二段 “We are not well equipped to deal with a disaster of this magnitude because we have never known a disaster like this,”可知,受灾国从来没想到会遭受如此大的海啸袭击。
59.A 主旨大意题。通观全文,报道的是发生在亚洲的海啸造成了15,500人死亡,救援人员前往援救并打捞尸体。

本文介绍了对人类的邻居——火星进行探测的最新成果:火星上的确有水存在过,而且有证据表明火星上曾经有生命存在过。
60.D 主旨大意题。纵观全文,作者向我们传达的是火星探测的最新研究成果。
61.A 推理判断题。文章最后一段中所提到的穿越时空隧道的快车只是一种幽默的说法,从我们的常识也应该知道,火星上是根本没有这样一种交通工具的。因此A项是不能从原文中推论出来的。
62.B 细节题。原文中sulfates, minerals, microbial activity都提到过,只有B. ice原文未曾提到。
63.A 推理判断题。从整篇文章的语气来看,作者是用一种诙谐、幽默的笔调来写的。
C
本文介绍了流感对人类造成的危害。流感病毒变种之多、变异速度之快令人类颇感头疼,而且由于流感造成的死亡人数甚至比艾滋病造成的死亡人数还多。
64.C细节题。从第一段第二行“…as the country is experiencing the coldest winter in 20 years.”和最后一段可看出,流行感冒病毒一般发生在冬季。
65.D细节题。答案在第三段“…because of a growth in the elderly population.”
66.C推理判断题。从第七段“…Older Americans need to know that the shots cannot give you the flu”可以推论出年纪比较大的人担心注射疫苗会感染上病毒。
67.A细节辨别题。从第七段死于RSV不同年龄数字看:四岁以下孩子每年大约有230人,而成年人却有11,000之多,大部分又是65岁以上的老年人。所以,RSV病毒对老年人群危害大。
D
本文论述了“文化冲击”(culture shock)现象。当人们突然面临异国文化或新的生活方式时,常常感到迷茫与苦恼,提出了感到“文化冲击”的人们通常经历的三个阶段,并给出了解决问题的办法。
68.C主旨大意题。通观全文,讲的是初到异国他乡的人们所遭受的“文化冲击”,介绍了“文化冲击”所经历的三个阶段,哪些人容易受到“文化冲击”,如何解决。
69.A词义猜测题。遭受“文化冲击”的人在第一阶段会非常喜欢新环境,第二阶段则开始憎恨新的城市、国家甚至憎恨那里的人们和周围的一切,第三个阶段他们开始不断的适应周围的环境,最后能够更加享受那儿的生活。
70.D细节题。从文章最后一段的最后一句Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.可知。
71.C细节辨别题。原文最后一段Culture shock gives rises to a feeling of disorientation(迷惘).便是此题判断的依据。
E
本文是一篇广告,旨在吸引游客到巴黎游览。
72.D主旨大意题。通读全文可知是为了吸引游客到巴黎旅游。
73.B细节题。从最后部分●Visit to the Chateau of Versailles(admission not included)可知。
74.B词义猜测题。从原文可知,到第三天去Montmatre,这很可能是巴黎最风景如画的地方。
75.C推理判断题。从文章第三段可知,第二天看完巴黎市区的风景后,离开巴黎,驱车一小段路程,到达the Palace of Versailles,然后回到巴黎休息,说明the Palace of Versailles不在巴黎市区。
短文改错
76. me后加上to。固定搭配错误。want sb. to do sth.是固定搭配。做宾补的不定式不能省to。
77. exciting改为excited。形容词误用。exciting意思是“令人激动的”,常用来修饰物;excited意思是“感到激动的”,常用来修饰人。本句要表示“我很激动地接受了邀请”应使用excited修饰人。
78. felt改为feel。时态误用。“我现在感到有点焦虑”应使用一般现在时。
79. 去掉between。冗余。A is different from B是固定结构,再加上between纯属多余。
80. 正确。
81. and改为or。连词误用。此处表示选择,应用or。“我是应该准时到达还是应该稍微晚一点?”
82. your改为their。 代词错用。“我应该怎样对他们的好意表示感谢?”
83. questions改为questions。单复数错误。questions前有all these修饰,应使用复数形式。
84. difficulty改为difficult。词性错用。make后的宾补应使用形容词形式。“所有这些问题充满了我的脑子,使得我在晚上很难睡好。”
85. hear改为hearing。非谓语动词错误。look forward to中的to是介词,其后跟名词或动名词。
